In 2007, CCTV and some local TV stations broadcast episodes 1, 8 and 36 of Jinggangshan, which combined the ordinary with the great, the tenderness with the iron, and reinterpreted the personality charm of the great man Mao Zedong.
In the past, film and television creators often grasped the image of the great man Mao Zedong because his military and political leadership was difficult to expand to the daily dimension and his one-dimensional color was obvious. Although some creators consciously show Mao Zedong's richer personality and emotions, they are still superficial. The drama chose the fulcrum of "home" in a unique way, which propped up Mao Zedong's charming body. Relying on the ideal platform of "home", the director vividly displayed Mao Zedong's rich inner world.
Fall in love with "small family" as soon as possible
"Home" is the pillar to maintain emotion. The play pays more attention to the farewell of Mao Zedong and Yang Kaihui, the encounter and acquaintance with He Zizhen, and the mutual care and support with his brother in trouble. Through the repeated appearance of these scenes, as well as the ballads and tunes of "Red Army Brothers, Walk Slowly", the audience was aroused to sing strongly. In the play, Mao Zedong mentioned the Double Ninth Festival many times, which is the traditional day for Philip Burkart to have a baby in China. Wang Wei's poem "Where bosom friends climb far away, one person is short of dogwood" deeply wedged into the soul of national emotion. Paying attention to the Double Ninth Festival is the refuge of traditional "home". In particular, the bronze key in the play appeared 9 times directly, 2 times indirectly and 5 times with a bronze lock. The homesickness released by these two images runs through the end of the play like a red line and is firmly tied to the hearts of great men.
